Direct flights to Paris are available from most UK airports including Birmingham, Manchester, Newcastle, Bristol, Edinburgh and all London airports. The flight time is usually less than 90 mins. Remember Paris has two main airports, Charles de Gaulle (CDG) and Orly (ORY), check that your flight to Paris and your flight to Reunion are using the same one. There are direct flights to Reunion from both Paris airports.
If you would prefer to fly direct to the Indian Ocean from the UK, you can travel to Mauritius (MRU) and then take a short hop to Reunion from there. Air Mauritius offer direct flights from Heathrow and British Airways have direct flights from Gatwick. Flight time is just under 12 hours.

From the USA, if you prefer to have just one stop on the way, it is best to fly to Paris and then take a direct flight to Reunion. There are numerous direct flights to Paris from New York, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Houston, Washington and many more. Please remember that Paris has two main airports, CDG and ORY. If you need to transfer between the two airports you should allow time for this.
On arrival, after clearing immigration and collecting your luggage, please look out for a member of our team in the arrivals area. They will be holding a large "KANDOO" sign.
